Kenny we will miss your joyful spirit, smile, and infectious laugh…

It is with great sadness that we inform our membership of the passing of Ken Hall on January 23rd. On behalf of the BC Wheelchair Basketball community we extend our condolences to the family and friends of “Kenny” as he was affectionately known.

Kenny was a long time member of BCWBS and a key part of the BC Men’s Team who were crowned national champions numerous times. He represented Team Canada at the Paralympic Games in 1996 and 2000, when the Canadian men won the first Paralympic gold medal in team history. Kenny was also a three-time bronze medallist with Team Canada at the world championships in 1994, 1998 and 2002.

A celebration of Kenny’s life will be held in Vancouver on February 9 as below:

In lieu of flowers the family has suggested that donations can be made to the BC Wheelchair Basketball Society in Kenny’s memory to support junior wheelchair basketball initiatives.
